Banner Tips
What are accounts 7171xx about?
These accounts are allocations of expenses. They are used when a department's charges reflect more than a specific type of charge--the charges aren't the exact cost of the item; the charges include a variety of things besides the actual item. For example, a Document Services charge isn't just for the actual printed item. There is also labor, ink, paper, copiers, etc. included in this charge.
Should I be using location codes?
As a rule, no.
Unless you are working with Facilities Management on a project involving your building you generally won't be using location codes.
Location codes are for large scale projects, or equipment over $10,000.
If you're not sure, check with Tracy Arndt x6567.
